Hi all,
I am trying to pull data from various XML files, using
cinclude, and I just seem to be missing something obvious.
I went through the list archives, but my problem seems
to be much simpler than what I found there.
I have been using the XSL document() function to get
a value from the files, but realize that this is not
the way to do it.
Here's what I want to do:
1. get a value for the root path of my application from
one XML file
2. assign it to a param or otherwise keep track of it
for further use.
Starting with the first page of my sitemap, I have:
<map:match pattern="gs">
<map:generate src="gs.xml"/>
<map:transform src="gs.xsl"/>
<map:transform src="default-html.xsl"/>
<map:serialize type="html"/>
</map:match>
gs.xml contains basic application data.
The major business logic transformations take place in
gs.xsl. This is what I currently am doing with document() in gs.xsl:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:saxon="http://icl.com/saxon";
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<!-- get the root path for other XML and gif files -->
<xsl:param name="root"
select="document('../../dat/gsproperties.xml')//Root"/>
...
with many references to $root.
default-html.xsl contains more transformations that are rather
straighforward, but it uses $root in some places.
and gsproperties.xml contains:
<Properties>
<Root>D:/tomcat/</Root>
<Project kgID="1001">
<TargetDate>3/2/02</TargetDate>
</Project>
</Properties>
I seem to be doing something wrong with the syntax when I try to use
cinclude
instead of document().
The errors typically say something like "file:/dat/gsproperties.xml was
not found".
I have tried various versions of examples from the archives, with no
success.
Am I going about this in a completely wrong manner?

Leona Slepetis
